With the big change tomorrow, time to post some World caps. I'll focus on the last 10 years, since the move to NBH. A look back at many presenters that appeared on the channel over the years, different shows, styles, breaking news specials etc....

So many great names and faces in that montage, Rados. Thanks for sharing.
Big Komla was great.

More to come, James. Komla was a rising star, gone too soon. Such a loss...
It's been a great decade for the channel, let's see what happens next.

I always thought Komla was the future of BBC World. Were he still with us, I think he would very likely be their star presenter. Very, very sad. 41 is no age.

Last bunch, before COVID came and started changing things.....

That I can name every single one of those presenters in all of the images above…… no wonder they call me a news junkie!
And of all of them, there’s only one I couldn’t stand and had to switch over when that person was on! (Sorry).

Wow! Completely forgot Martin Stanford had a stint on World. Great presenter - never understood why Sky let him go. Same goes for Samantha Simmonds.
EDIT: Duncan Golestani as well. Don't think he's been on for a long time, has he? I know for a while he freelanced between ITV London and BBC World, but I think now he just does ITV?

Some great screen grabs there amazing what a difference a great background make, BBC World News had it too good for a long time before they started ruining it.

Might as well post the rest of it. COVID onwards, studio C presentation. The difference is obvious.

Seeing that picture of Kasia Madeira and Jamie Robertson (I think) together in C takes me back to where I was the night when Mandela died
Amazing collection!
